都这么久了,优化还是很差,卡顿、去市场选人居然鼠标移到特质上就一闪而过,还想重新玩个档,算了算了打扰了。
TD;DR: Worth the money. Very fun game. Bug free. Performance very stable. - Massive character creation. Similar like Kenshi character creation. - Gladitor has their own life, everyone has their own story, and also they can hate or falling in love to each other (benefit for falling in love that they will have some relationship buff when fighting together, just like friendship in XCOM) - HUGE item content (armor, weapon, etc..) - Procedural Generated event/mission. Specs: i5 8500 3.0ghz 16GB of Ram GTX 1070 8GB SSD (play in 1440p, 60fps (it can go up to 144 fps, but I always fixed my game at 60fps because I don't want to hear my CPU screaming)) __________________________________________ I have to admit that this game is on my radar for very long time. But I didn't purchase it due to lacking of content and a lot of bugs. But today, after checking all the patches and purchased the game for the first time. I have to say that the game is 90% bug free, no sh i t. I spent 3hrs already and so far I didn't see any bug/glitch, game working like a charms. The only small issues I see is the UI still look very basic, but this game still in EA so I understand about this. Why I say 90% bug free instead of 100%? Because I think there MIGHT have some bug glitch that still lurking around and I don't caught it yet (I hope I'm wrong about this). About this game: THIS GAME IS VERY FUN TO PLAY! I DIDN"T EXPECTED ABOUT THIS! - This game similar Kenshi, yes. The character shape sometimes (or almost all the time) looks pretty weird, just like Kenshi, like a person with a small arm and have a giant torso, reminds me of those titans in AOT. BUT! BUT, like Kenshi, you can create your beautiful character by using the slider, and trust me, this game provide a bunch of creation setting for character. You can edit a lot of your character, like hair, shape of head, face, body, boobies, etc... AND it isn't like a fixed templates that you can only choose, you have a bunch of sliders, 99% everything in character creation are sliders, so you can freely to play with your creative!! - Just like Kenshi, but instead of hauling your ass across a massive map, your party now just living in the house, Sound boring but actually not! You can assign your member to plenty of position like Chef who will stay in kitchen and make sure everyone stomach will be filled all the time, nurse/doctor who will nurse the injured members, Trainer who has a high level and good stats, to train your newbie teammate, Blacksmith who will smith weapon and armor. ALSO, each position can do a research ! Like Chef can take a few days for researching a new food or diet programs to make your team always fit and thicc. Doctor can take a few days for research a new medicine/chemical to help your team survive in the fight, Smith can take a few days to research new armor/weapon. Also there is a postion called Torturer, I will explains this position in the next line. - There are 2 types of character in this game, Slave and Prisoner. Slave who will obey your order right in the beginning after you bought them, Prisoner, in the other hand, need some care from Torturer in order to convert them into Slave. Sound bad? But I role-play that I'm a good person who bough all slave from the market and let them enjoy their new safe home here, OH, you can start a Feast anytime you want, all your members will gather at the Inn/ or Canteen and drinking,chatting, having fun, it will boost their mood so they can be more loyal to you. - And another thing that make this game similar like Kenshi that the injures systems, your member can be sightly injure or serious one, like broken arm, leg, rib etc... and it took them a lot of time to heal it. Also they can be killed in the fight. The chance depend on your custom setting. - Everybody here has their own story and own personality, like you can read their story after buy them, and sometimes they will have an argument to each other, and you have to choose which one you are gonna stand with or you can ignore both OR you can punish them all. The choices is yours. - Animation is Kenshi tier, I can tell, weird and cool at the same time. Also you can see your character do stuff when in the house, like cooking, nursing injure member, smith some stuff, wandering around, except torturer, they didn't do much. - Character model looks pretty good actually, you can see the shiny thicc ass of your waifu gladiator. I never get bore about that. Also you can walking around in your house in 1st person view, and when your member see you, they will salute (as a guard) or bow down to you (as a slave). WHAT ABOUT THE GAMEPLAY!??? - Well, I'm glad that you ask, the gameplay is simple but doesn't feel like lacking of content imo. You can send your gladiators to Arena to fight for money and stuff, there are a lot of Arena types and game types, like tag team, solo, free for all, fight against each other while the arena full of trap and wild animal, etc.. Also there are a lot of Procedural Generated mission in the world map, like capture slave, raid, ambush caravan, explore the dungeon, killing monster, etc... a lot, and those are not a rabit holes, you send them go, seems like a rabit whole, few days later a message pop up and says your squad found the target, what do you want them to do, and you can choose plenty of solutions to deal with it, after all, if you squad start the fight, and the game will move you to that squad location and you can control them to fight against the enemy. - And there are a lot more things to do! __________________

This and every other Pro feature is free until October 20, 2026. A free account is all it takes.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Jul 24 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Great game to pass the time - highly recommended
acımacız bir lanista(bir gladyatör birliği sahibine verilen ünvan) mı olucaksınız yoksa acımasız bir lanista mı ? performansını beğenmediğiniz zaman ve para harcamak istemediğiniz köleleri işkence odasında günler süren işkenceden sonra öldürmek hoşunuza gidebilir çünkü discart etme yok yada ben bulamadım bu yüzden bundan keyif almaya çalıştım. muhtemelen item ve köle satma vardır ama dikkatimi çekmedi bazı nedenlerden ötürü. bu nedenler oyunun komplike oynayış bicimine sahip olmasından geçiyor 3-5 saatlik bir kavrama süreci var oyunu cidden çetrefilli değişik komplike durumlar ve şeyler var bunu basite indirgeyebilirlerdi diye düşünüyorum ama yapmamışlar, lakin bu dediklerim gözünüzü korkutmasın oyun aslında son derece basit, kendisi zor gözükmeye çalışmış sadece ve bundan ötürü ne olduğunu kavraması zor şeylere sahip. bulabileceğiniz en detaylı arena sim oyunu diyorlar bu oyun hakkında, bana da öyle geliyor ne yalan söyleyim. tavsiye ederim ama tam fiyatından almamaya çalışın çünkü şuan için ana fiyatını hak etmiyor, istek listesine atıp indirim bekleyin. 10/7,5
BUG不少,但是玩起来还是挺上头的,希望后续再出点剧情,流程有些短
快乐
恕我直言,国产游戏真的任重道远。我这几十元钱就当是支持国产游戏了……
铁人档没保存,在大厅直接退出的话,再次加载的时候凭空消失了5个角色,装备也没了,给我心态整炸了
有没有知道为什么,经常打完战斗之后返回角斗场的时候无限卡死在加载界面,虽说有自动保存,也不能总是出问题啊,这还怎么玩?
